Since purchasing the property in 2007, the current owners have carried out a programme of extension and refurbishment to create a lovely family home with well-laid out accommodation. The property, however, still offers the opportunity for further development to make the most of its quite outstanding plot and location. It is wonderfully light throughout with many of the rooms boasting lovely views down the garden.
On the ground floor are two versatile reception rooms, one with doors opening onto the patio and one with a fireplace, a study, large utility with space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer, a cloakroom and a very pleasant kitchen/breakfast/dining room with a good range of units and a further set of doors to the garden.
The three double bedrooms on the first floor all have fitted wardrobes and are served by a large family bathroom with a walk-in shower.
The house sits centrally in its magnificent, established grounds offering excellent levels of tranquility and seclusion – outside space that is rarely found and has to be seen to be fully appreciated. There are some impressive, mature trees and shrubs dotted amongst the mainly lawned garden along with a patio across the back of the house, ideal for al-fresco dining etc. The property also comes with a number of useful garden sheds/stores including a traditional timber potting shed. To the front of the house is a circular driveway, again edged with established planting, providing parking for at least 5 cars.
Surrey Cottage occupies an impressive and unrivalled plot on this private, residential no-through road which is broadly recognised as one of the best addresses in Great Shelford within walking distance of many of the varied amenities this popular village has to offer. These amenities include doctors’ and dentist’s surgeries, a primary school, chemist, several convenience stores, a butchers’ and bakers, public houses, a delicatessen, café, library and post office. In addition, there is a garden centre and Waitrose supermarket just a few minutes away. For the commuter there is excellent access to a railway station (to London’s Liverpool Street) along with cycle routes into the city and very good road access to major networks. Addenbrooke’s Hospital is close by which will soon be the site for the new Cambridge South railway station (into London’s Kings Cross). Great Shelford is in the catchment area for Sawston Village College along with a wide range of private schools in Cambridge itself.

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on July 15, 2022
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on July 15, 2022
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on December 8, 2023 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
